However, in order to improve the operability of the piano handle 101, the pushing operation of the piano handle 101 is recommended. Since the side protrudes forward from the surface of the decorative plate 103, when the wireless remote controller is attached to the front side of the piano handle 101, the amount of protrusion from the surface of the decorative plate 103 increases, and the existing embedded type There was a problem that the unity of the design with the wiring device could not be taken.

In addition, the light guide 34 of the display piece 9 that faces the light emitting diode LD1 is opposed, and the lens portion 32 of the light receiving cover 5 is opposed to the light receiving surface of the light receiving module 72a, and the light emitted from the light emitting diode LD1 passes through the display piece 9. The optical signal guided to the outside and transmitted from the wireless remote controller 6 is condensed on the light receiving module 72 a by the lens unit 32. When the operation side of the piano handle 4 is pushed from this state, the piano handle 4 rotates about the shaft portion 16, and the push button 51 of the push button switch SW1 is pushed by the push protrusion 39 on the back surface of the piano handle 4. The recess 39a of the piano handle 4 is in contact with the boss 19 so that the piano handle 4 cannot be pushed any further. After that, when the force to push the operation side of the piano handle 4 is removed, the piano handle 4 receives the return force generated in the push button 51 of the push button switch SW1 and the return force generated in the bearing spring 24 and the elastic spring piece 18 to return the piano handle 4 to the return position. Move up. A projection 37 for displaying the operation position is provided at the right end of the front surface of the piano handle 4 so that the operation position can be easily identified even in the dark by touching the projection 37. An operator can easily determine the operation position.

On the other hand, on the printed circuit board 41, a pair of comb-shaped contact portions 50a and 50b arranged so as to mesh with each other at a substantially constant interval in a portion facing the conductive portion 42b prints the carbon paste. Is formed by. Here, the above-described operation switch SW3 is configured by the contact portions 50a and 50b and the conductive portion 42b, so that the wireless remote controller 6 can be made thinner and the cost can be reduced as compared with the case where an existing switch such as a tact switch is used. Thus, when the operation convex portion 42a as the remote control operation portion provided on the membrane sheet 42 is pushed, the membrane sheet 42 is bent and the conductive portion 42b comes into contact with the contact portions 50a and 50b, and between the contact portions 50a and 50b. By conducting through the conductive portion 42b, an operation input is given to the control circuit portion 80, the transmission circuit portion 81 drives the light emitting diode LD2 in accordance with the control signal of the control circuit portion 80, and a switching signal is transmitted by a wireless signal. It is supposed to send.

以上のようなワイヤレスリモコン６を組み立てるに当たっては、ケース４０の収納凹部４０ａ内に、切替スイッチＳＷ４に被せた摘み４５と、プリント基板４１と、鉄片４４とを挿入した後、ケース４０の開口側からメンブレンシート４２を貼り付ければ良い。ここに、ケース４０とメンブレンシート４２とでリモコン本体が構成される。そして、釦電池を収めた電池ホルダー４３を正しい向きに向けて挿入口から挿入すると、弾性係止片４８ｂの爪４８ｃ及び嵌合部４９の係止爪４９ｃがそれぞれケース４０の係止凹部５５，５６に係止することによって、電池ホルダー４３がケース４０に取り付けられる。一方、電池ホルダー４３を取り外す際には、電池ホルダー４３の嵌合部４９に設けた外し溝４９ｂに手の爪を引っ掛けて、撓み片４９ａを撓ませて、係止爪４９ｃと係止凹部５６との係止状態を解除した後、引掛凹部４８ａに手の爪を引っ掛けて、電池ホルダー４３を引き出せば良い。   In assembling the wireless remote controller 6 as described above, after inserting the knob 45, the printed circuit board 41, and the iron piece 44 over the changeover switch SW4 into the housing recess 40a of the case 40, the opening of the case 40 is opened. The membrane sheet 42 may be attached. Here, the case 40 and the membrane sheet 42 constitute a remote control main body. When the battery holder 43 containing the button battery is inserted through the insertion port in the correct direction, the claw 48c of the elastic locking piece 48b and the locking claw 49c of the fitting portion 49 are respectively connected to the locking recess 55, The battery holder 43 is attached to the case 40 by being locked to 56. On the other hand, when the battery holder 43 is removed, a hook of a hand is hooked on the release groove 49b provided in the fitting portion 49 of the battery holder 43 to bend the bending piece 49a, and the locking claw 49c and the locking recess 56 are removed. After releasing the latching state, the battery holder 43 may be pulled out by hooking a fingernail on the hooking recess 48a.

このワイヤレスリモコン６はピアノハンドル４の取付部２６に取り付けられる。すなわちワイヤレスリモコン６とピアノハンドル４の向きを合わせて、ワイヤレスリモコン６をピアノハンドル４の取付部２６に前面側から取り付けると、ワイヤレスリモコン６のケース４０内に納装された鉄片４４がピアノハンドル４に取着した永久磁石８によって吸着され、ワイヤレスリモコン６がピアノハンドル４に取り付けられる。この時、ワイヤレスリモコン６のケース４０に設けた係止凹部５７とピアノハンドル４の位置決めリブ３８が係止するとともに、ケース４０の係止溝４０ｃにピアノハンドル４の突起３７が係止することで、ワイヤレスリモコン６がピアノハンドル４に対して位置決めされ、ワイヤレスリモコン６の位置ずれが起こりにくくなっている。そして、この状態でワイヤレスリモコン６の前面の操作側（突起５８側）を押すと、ワイヤレスリモコン６の押力をピアノハンドル４が受けて、軸部１６を中心に回転し、ピアノハンドル４裏面の押圧突起３９によって押釦スイッチＳＷ１の押釦５１が押操作される。その後ワイヤレスリモコン６の操作側を押す力をなくすと、押釦スイッチＳＷ１の押釦５１に発生する復帰力と軸受け用ばね２４及び弾性ばね片１８に発生する復帰力とを受けてワイヤレスリモコン６（ピアノハンドル４）が復帰位置まで移動する。   The wireless remote controller 6 is attached to the attachment portion 26 of the piano handle 4. That is, when the wireless remote controller 6 and the piano handle 4 are aligned, and the wireless remote controller 6 is attached to the mounting portion 26 of the piano handle 4 from the front side, the iron piece 44 housed in the case 40 of the wireless remote controller 6 is attached to the piano handle 4. The wireless remote controller 6 is attached to the piano handle 4 by being attracted by the permanent magnet 8 attached to the piano handle 4. At this time, the locking recess 57 provided in the case 40 of the wireless remote controller 6 and the positioning rib 38 of the piano handle 4 are locked, and the protrusion 37 of the piano handle 4 is locked in the locking groove 40 c of the case 40. The wireless remote controller 6 is positioned with respect to the piano handle 4, and the wireless remote controller 6 is less likely to be displaced. In this state, when the operation side (projection 58 side) on the front surface of the wireless remote control 6 is pressed, the piano handle 4 receives the pressing force of the wireless remote control 6 and rotates around the shaft portion 16. The push button 51 of the push button switch SW1 is pushed by the push protrusion 39. Thereafter, when the force to push the operating side of the wireless remote controller 6 is removed, the wireless remote controller 6 (piano handle) receives the restoring force generated on the push button 51 of the push button switch SW1 and the restoring force generated on the bearing spring 24 and the elastic spring piece 18. 4) moves to the return position.

一方、ワイヤレスリモコン６をピアノハンドル４から外してリモコン操作を行う場合は、ワイヤレスリモコン６のケース４０に設けた突条５９に手を掛けて、ケース４０を前側に引っ張ると、ケース４０を容易に取り外すことができ、上述のようにしてリモコン操作が行えるのである。   On the other hand, when the wireless remote control 6 is removed from the piano handle 4 and the remote control operation is performed, the case 40 can be easily moved by holding the ridge 59 provided on the case 40 of the wireless remote control 6 and pulling the case 40 forward. It can be removed and the remote control can be operated as described above.

ここで、本実施形態ではピアノハンドル４の前面に薄肉の取付部２６を設けて、この取付部２６にワイヤレスリモコン６を装着しているので、ワイヤレスリモコン６の壁面からの突出量をできるだけ小さくでき、また取付部２６を薄肉（約０．５ｍｍ）に形成することで、ピアノハンドル４に取り付けた永久磁石８とワイヤレスリモコン６の内部に収納した鉄片４４との間の距離が短くなり、磁力によるワイヤレスリモコン６の取付強度を高めることができる。   Here, in this embodiment, since the thin attachment part 26 is provided in the front surface of the piano handle 4 and the wireless remote controller 6 is attached to this attachment part 26, the amount of protrusion from the wall surface of the wireless remote controller 6 can be made as small as possible. In addition, by forming the attachment portion 26 to be thin (about 0.5 mm), the distance between the permanent magnet 8 attached to the piano handle 4 and the iron piece 44 housed inside the wireless remote controller 6 is shortened, resulting in magnetic force. The attachment strength of the wireless remote controller 6 can be increased.

またワイヤレスリモコン６が装着されるピアノハンドル４の部位（取付部２６）を薄肉にすることで、樹脂成型時に発生する外力によってピアノハンドル４の端が多少反ることも考えられるが、本実施形態ではピアノハンドル４の裏面における枢支部と反対側の端部（右端部）に、上下方向における中央部から両側部に行くにつれて、カバー３の前面から遠ざかる向きに傾斜するテーパ面４ａ，４ａが形成されているので、ピアノハンドル４の両側部が多少反っていたとしても、ピアノハンドル４の両側付近でピアノハンドル４の裏側面とカバー３の前面との間の隙間（ストローク）を確実に確保でき、ピアノハンドル４の両側部を押してスイッチ操作を行うことができる。また更に、ピアノハンドル４の裏面における枢支部と反対側の部位の上下両側部をそれぞれ前方に押圧する押圧ばね片１８，１８がカバー３と一体に形成されており、ピアノハンドルにおける枢支部と反対側の部位の上下両側部をそれぞれ押圧ばね片１８，１８で前方に押圧しているので、上述と同様にピアノハンドル４の両側部が多少反っていたとしても、ピアノハンドル４の両側付近でピアノハンドル４の裏側面とカバー３の前面との間の隙間（ストローク）を確実に確保でき、ピアノハンドル４の両側部を押してスイッチ操作を行うことができる。   In addition, it is conceivable that the end of the piano handle 4 is slightly warped by an external force generated at the time of resin molding by thinning the portion (attachment portion 26) of the piano handle 4 to which the wireless remote controller 6 is attached. Then, taper surfaces 4a and 4a are formed at the end portion (right end portion) opposite to the pivot portion on the back surface of the piano handle 4 so as to be inclined away from the front surface of the cover 3 as it goes from the center portion to both sides in the vertical direction. Therefore, even if both sides of the piano handle 4 are slightly warped, a gap (stroke) between the back side surface of the piano handle 4 and the front surface of the cover 3 can be reliably secured near both sides of the piano handle 4. The switch operation can be performed by pressing both sides of the piano handle 4. Furthermore, pressing spring pieces 18 and 18 are formed integrally with the cover 3 so as to press the upper and lower sides of the portion opposite to the pivot portion on the back surface of the piano handle 4 forward, respectively, and are opposite to the pivot portion of the piano handle. Since the upper and lower side portions of the side portion are pressed forward by the pressing spring pieces 18 and 18 respectively, even if both side portions of the piano handle 4 are slightly warped in the same manner as described above, A gap (stroke) between the back side surface of the handle 4 and the front surface of the cover 3 can be ensured, and the switch operation can be performed by pressing both sides of the piano handle 4.

またワイヤレスリモコン６のケース４０は直方体状であって、短幅方向に対向する２つの側壁が、ピアノハンドル４の短幅方向に対向する２つの辺に略平行するようにしてピアノハンドル４の前面に取り付けられており、ケース４０の前面は短幅方向における中間部が両側部に比べて前方に突出するような曲面形状に形成されているので、操作性を良好にできる。またケース４０は短幅方向の中央部に比べて両側部の厚みが小さくなっているので、内部の回路に動作電源を供給する釦電池を保持した電池ホルダー４３が挿抜自在に挿入される挿入口が、ケース４０の短幅方向に対向する２つの側壁の何れかに開口していると、ケース４０の両側部の厚みが厚くなって壁面からの突出量が大きくなり、また長手方向に対向する２つの側壁の内、発光ダイオードＬＤ２が配設された側壁は発光ダイオードＬＤ２のために電池の収納スペースが確保できなくなるが、本実施形態ではケース４０の長手方向に対向する２つの側壁の内の一方（上側壁）に発光ダイオードＬＤ２を配置するとともに、他方（下側壁）に電池ホルダー４３の挿入口を設けてあり、厚みが最も厚くなるケース４０の短幅方向中央部に電池ホルダー４３を配置しているので、ケース４０（ワイヤレスリモコン６）の厚みをできるだけ薄くでき、壁面からのワイヤレスリモコン６の突出量を小さくして、他の配線器具とのデザインの統一性を確保することができる。   The case 40 of the wireless remote controller 6 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and the two side walls facing in the short width direction are substantially parallel to the two sides facing the short width direction of the piano handle 4 so that the front surface of the piano handle 4 is located. Since the front surface of the case 40 is formed in a curved shape such that the middle portion in the short width direction protrudes forward compared to the both side portions, the operability can be improved. Further, since the case 40 has a smaller thickness at both side portions than the central portion in the short width direction, the insertion opening into which the battery holder 43 holding the button battery for supplying the operation power to the internal circuit is removably inserted. However, if the opening is made in one of the two side walls facing the short width direction of the case 40, the thickness of both side portions of the case 40 is increased, the amount of protrusion from the wall surface is increased, and the case 40 is opposed to the longitudinal direction. Of the two side walls, the side wall on which the light emitting diode LD2 is disposed cannot secure a storage space for the battery because of the light emitting diode LD2, but in this embodiment, the side wall of the two side walls facing the longitudinal direction of the case 40 is not. The light emitting diode LD2 is arranged on one side (upper side wall), and the insertion port for the battery holder 43 is provided on the other side (lower side wall). Since the rudder 43 is disposed, the thickness of the case 40 (wireless remote control 6) can be made as thin as possible, the amount of protrusion of the wireless remote control 6 from the wall surface can be reduced, and design uniformity with other wiring devices can be ensured. be able to.

なお本実施形態では、ワイヤレスリモコン６のケース４０に取り付けた鉄片４４と、この鉄片４４に対応するピアノハンドル４の部位に取り付けられた永久磁石８とで、ワイヤレスリモコン６とピアノハンドル４とを磁力で結合する結合手段を構成しているが、ワイヤレスリモコン６のケース４０に永久磁石を取り付けるとともに、この永久磁石に対応するピアノハンドル４の部位に磁性体を取り付けて、ワイヤレスリモコン６とピアノハンドル４とを磁力で結合するようにしても良く、この場合はワイヤレスリモコン６のケース４０に永久磁石を取り付けているので、ワイヤレスリモコン６をスチール製の机や冷蔵庫など磁性体でできたものに取り付けて使用することができ、使い勝手が向上する。   In this embodiment, the wireless remote controller 6 and the piano handle 4 are magnetically coupled by the iron piece 44 attached to the case 40 of the wireless remote controller 6 and the permanent magnet 8 attached to the portion of the piano handle 4 corresponding to the iron piece 44. The wireless remote controller 6 and the piano handle 4 are attached by attaching a permanent magnet to the case 40 of the wireless remote controller 6 and attaching a magnetic material to the portion of the piano handle 4 corresponding to the permanent magnet. In this case, since a permanent magnet is attached to the case 40 of the wireless remote control 6, the wireless remote control 6 is attached to a steel desk or refrigerator made of a magnetic material. It can be used, improving usability.
